Hello,
to find the total cost (c) of the colored strips we have to multiply the number of strips (n) by the cost of each color strip (99¢), that as an algebraic function is:
[¢]
Now, if we use 3 solid color strips, that means that we use 4 patterned strips, so:
Answer: c=n*99 and Cost per curtain= $7.97
There are two ways to do this but the way I prefer is to make one of the equations in terms of one variable and then 'plug this in' to the second equation. I will demonstrate
Look at equation 1,
this can quite easily be manipulated to show
.
Then because there is a y in the second equation (and both equations are simultaneous) we can 'plug in' our new equation where y is in the second one
which can then be solved for x since there is only one variable
and then with our x solution we can work out our y solution by using the equation we manipulated
.
So the solution to these equations is x=-2 when y=6

4p-9p=-5p
Answer:
Y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
(3y+5)= -4 -8y +9 + 77
-5 -5
3y= -9 - 8y + 9 + 77
+9 -9
3y= -8y + 77
+8y +8y
11y = 77
11y/11 77/11
y = 7
1. subtract 5 from both sides
2. add -9 and +9 and you get 0
3. add 8y to both sides
4. divide both sides by 11
5. you get y=7
